Fairbanks Jail Mugshots Search

The Fairbanks Correctional Center is the main state jail for the city. It sits at 1931 Eagan Avenue, Fairbanks, AK 99701. Capacity is 307 beds. The main phone is (907) 458-6700. FCC holds pretrial detainees, sentenced misdemeanants, and people waiting for transfer to other state prisons. Booking runs 24 hours a day. Most Fairbanks jail mugshots start at this facility when state troopers or FPD bring a new arrest in.

VINE is the fastest free tool for Fairbanks inmate lookup. Go to vinelink.com or call 1-800-247-9763. Search by name and pick Alaska as the state. VINE shows custody location, booking date, charges, bail, and any photo on file. You can set up text or email alerts for custody changes. VINE pulls straight from the DOC database and refreshes within minutes of a release or transfer.

Fairbanks jail mugshots themselves are not posted in bulk. FPD runs a public records portal and a P2C (Police to Citizen) system. Requests for booking photos go through these channels. The state DOC at doc.alaska.gov handles photos from FCC bookings. Include the booking number if known, the date of arrest, and the full legal name of the subject. Under AS 40.25.110, the agency has 10 working days to reply.

The Fairbanks Police Department site is the start point for any formal request tied to Fairbanks jail mugshots, arrest reports, or incident records.

Fairbanks Police Records Unit

FPD is at 911 Cushman Street, Fairbanks, AK 99701. The main phone is (907) 450-6500. The email is fpd@fairbanks.us. FPD uses the P2C portal for online records access. Through P2C you can look up recent calls, case numbers, and some incident data. Not every file shows in P2C. Closed cases and full reports need a formal records request.

Written requests should name the date, time, and location of the incident. List the full name of any party you are asking about. If you have a case or incident number, put it on the form. A reason for the request helps the records staff trace the right file. FPD can accept requests in person, by mail, or by email. Expect 5 to 10 business days for standard files. Longer reviews run up to 20 days under the extension clause of the Alaska Public Records Act.

What records contain for a Fairbanks arrest: full legal name, date of birth, physical description, photo, arrest date and location, arresting officer, charges with AS cites, bail, and court case number. The release of the basic arrest record is covered under AS 12.62.180. Criminal history checks are separate and run through the DPS Criminal Records and ID Bureau at (907) 269-5767 for a $20 name search or $35 print.

Fairbanks Correctional Center

The Fairbanks Correctional Center is run by the Alaska Department of Corrections. It sits at 1931 Eagan Avenue and holds 307 beds. FCC is a regional jail that serves all of the Interior. It takes bookings from FPD, Alaska State Troopers, UAF police, and the airport police. Most Fairbanks jail mugshots held in state custody come from this facility.

Visits are by appointment. Call (907) 458-6700 to set one up. Visitors must be on the inmate approved list. Photo ID is required. The dress code bars tank tops, short skirts, and see-through clothing. No phones or bags go past the lobby. Book funds and commissary money go through the approved payment vendor listed on the DOC site. Phone calls from FCC are outbound collect or prepaid.

An FCC booking record holds these core fields: booking number, date and time, full name, date of birth, race, height, weight, hair and eye color, home address, charges with AS cites, warrant numbers, bail, housing unit, and next court date. The mugshot is filed as a separate image and may or may not come with the text record. For longer-term sentenced inmates, transfers go to Goose Creek in Wasilla, Spring Creek in Seward, or Hiland Mountain in Eagle River for women.

The UAF Police Department handles bookings on the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus and routes the paperwork tied to Fairbanks jail mugshots through FPD or the troopers.

Fairbanks Court Records

The Alaska Court System runs the Fourth Judicial District from Fairbanks. The main courthouse handles all criminal cases filed in the city. CourtView is the free case search at records.courts.alaska.gov. Search by name, case number, ticket number, or hearing date. The page shows charges, bail, hearing dates, the jail where the person is held, and docket entries.

Copy fees through the court clerk run $5 for the first document and $3 for each one after. Certified copies are $10 first and $3 each after. For older files not in CourtView, call the Fairbanks court clerk. Juvenile cases are sealed under AS 47.12 and will not show in the public search at all. Sealed adult cases need a court order to open.

Federal cases tied to Fairbanks arrests go to the US District Court for the District of Alaska. The federal docket is on PACER. For anyone held in federal custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator. Alaska defendants in federal cases are often housed in Seattle or elsewhere out of state while their case moves through trial.

Fairbanks Troopers and Airport Police

Alaska State Troopers Detachment D covers the Interior and is based at the Fairbanks Post. Dispatch is (907) 451-5100. Troopers handle bookings outside Fairbanks city limits and share a lot of workload with FPD. Trooper records requests go through the DPS portal at dpsalaska.justfoia.com. The daily dispatch feed at dailydispatch.dps.alaska.gov lists arrests and incidents by date and post.

The Fairbanks International Airport Police sits at 6450 Airport Way, (907) 474-2500. The unit handles bookings on airport property. A booking made at the airport still flows through FCC and FPD for records. See the Fairbanks Airport Police page for contact info and request forms. The Alaska Public Records Act (AS 40.25.100 through 40.25.295) sets the access rules. Full text is on the Alaska Legislature site.

The Fairbanks Airport Police and Fire site covers a small share of Fairbanks jail mugshots tied to arrests made on airport grounds.

Fairbanks Records Access Rules

Under the Alaska Public Records Act, FPD and FCC have 10 working days to answer a first request. An extra 10-day extension is allowed for complex files. Fees kick in after the first 5 hours of staff time. Standard copy charges apply on top. A plain-language guide to the APRA is on the Alaska Department of Law APRA page.

Not every record is open. Criminal history reports are confidential under AS 12.62.160. Sealed records need a court order. Juvenile files are off limits. Open investigation files may be held back until a case closes or adjudication wraps up. Victim identity is often redacted. Release of basic arrest data is covered under AS 12.62.110 and AS 12.62.180. The Fairbanks North Star Borough Clerk can also handle records tied to borough agencies, not just FPD.

If you need help finding a booking photo, start with VINE for quick custody info. Then file a request with the right agency for the photo itself. Keep the booking number handy. Give a date range when you can. Short, focused requests get faster turnaround than broad ones that pull in hundreds of pages. Rush jobs with a court deadline can be flagged in the note field on the request form.
